New Explore

We've updated the Explore Polyvore page by adding a new two-column layout and some extra features! You'll now see even more popular sets and groups in the main column, as well as more Contests, Polyvore Announcements, and Recent Faces on the right. Check it out now and let us know what you think.

I really don't like it. The one plus of it is that it's easier to tell what contests are going on. But I hate that the recent sets are gone and I also think it's harder to navigate. Plus, we really don't need to see all those groups.

Well I think it has good points and bad points, but what in life doesn't? To the positive side, you can see more of the popular sets, groups, and contests that are happening. On the negative side, you no longer can see the recent sets. Personally I loved seeing the new sets people created, that's how I have met some great people here, seeing the newest thing they have created. Also it takes a bit to adjust to, the new layout, kind of confusing at first. I love the changes to Polyvore, and it's ever evolving for the better I might add, but I would love dearly to see the "recent sets" back on there. I feel people making new sets or their first sets are being cheated in that aspect. Thank you for allowing the oppertunity to voice that! Adorable_Abby=)

dayuummm. Whoever "anonymous" is really trying to drive their point home. I think we get it already: you don't like it.

Like I said on the Polyvore Forums, I quite like it, it is a little busy but it's definitely much better than just squares going across the page. Maybe you could make creative "tabs" (like in the style of "file folders") at the top so the links are cleaner and easier to find.

I hate it! We were already being repeatedly bashed over the head with the same "popular" sets and now there's even less visual variety on the explore page for browsing purposes. In my opinion, the recent sets were the best feature of the explore page. And having the most recent contest submissions at the top was also contributing to the variety of the page. Right now it's just phenomenally boring and repetitive, too much space is devoted to groups, and it's almost (but not quite) enough to turn me off of polyvore.

It's too cluttered and is trying to accomplish too much. I don't think you need so many popular ones. you may just feature fewer of each category to reduce the clutter.looking forward to your improvements!

I think it's really good! Probably because i only joined a while ago, and haven't seen how it used to be. But i like how u can b the first to comment on [some good some bad] recently added sets. I don't know y everyone thinks it's that bad. I mean if u hate it that much you can just not click on it. ^_^
